1 DP means we're rounding to the tenths place. Just repeat what we did last question.
solve for u^2 + 2as and take the square root of both sides
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so is this 9+2*9.8*12
OpenStudy (anonymous):
or 9+2*9.8+12
OpenStudy (bibby):
\[\large 9+ 2*a*s = 9 + (2*9.8*12)\]

244.2?
OpenStudy (bibby):
it'll be clearer to you if you line up the equations and then fill in the variables.
\[\huge u^2+2as\]\[\huge 3^2+[2*12*9.8]\]
OpenStudy (bibby):
yep!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then do i square root 244.2
OpenStudy (bibby):
you do. because you have
\[\huge v^2 =244.2 \]but you want v alone

When i am well hopefully
OpenStudy (bibby):
oh :<, feel better.
Anyhow we take the square root of both sides
v^2 = 244.2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
15.626899884494 is square root of 244.2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
15.6 to be short
OpenStudy (bibby):
Exactly. Re-read the directions. We want it to one decimal place.

yep good job
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thnx again
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but what is:
s=ut=0.5at^2
a=9.8
t=5
u=7
OpenStudy (bibby):
ask it in another question
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay
